Anthropogenic and environmental constraints on the microbial methane cycle in coastal sediments
Large amounts of methane, a potent greenhouse gas, are produced in anoxic sediments by
methanogenic archaea. Nonetheless, over 90% of the produced methane is oxidized via …

Fueled by methane: deep-sea sponges from asphalt seeps gain their nutrition from methane-oxidizing symbionts
Sponges host a remarkable diversity of microbial symbionts, however, the benefit their
microbes provide is rarely understood. Here, we describe two new sponge species from …
